Definitions

  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a transportation device for various processing stations, without the filling and closing devices, which are arranged above it;
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic side view of a spreading device for the package in inserted condition
  • FIG. 3 shows a top view of the embodiment according to FIG. 2, with only one-half shown;
  • FIG. 4 shows a side view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, with the spreading device in spread condition
  • FIG. 5 shows a top view of the embodiment according to FIG. 4, with only one-half shown.
  • the spread packages receive their right-angled form by means of the spreading device, the function of which will be described later, in connection with FIGS. 2-5.
  • the packages rest on the vertical plates 18 and 19 with their wide sides, and with their bottoms, they rest upon the bottom plate 17.
  • the bottom wall 17 and vertical walls 18 and 19 form a substantially U-shaped cassette.
  • the side flaps 16 also rest upon the floor plate 17, of the cassette, where they are held tight by the pressure pads 24.
  • FIG. 1 the rear longitudinal path with the processing stations 3, 4, 5 and 6 is shown.
  • the package which has been entirely filled reaches a free position, the end position of the rear longitudinal path.
  • a filled package is pushed transversely in the direction designated by arrow C to the frontal longitudinal path, up to the point where it meets the narrow front side at the external glide strips 14.
  • cassettes are moved along the frontal longitudinal path toward the left in the direction designated as arrow B, along with the packages located therein, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the packages first of all pass through the sealing station 7, the fold-over station 8, the turn-over and gluing station 9 and the finishing station 10.
  • the completed packages 12 pass on to the move-out station 11.
  • the completed, closed packages 12 are moved out transversely and laterally between the plates 18 and 19, thus reaching the receiving position.
  • the interior glide strips 15 are shown only in the rear longitudinal path. However, they are also provided in the same manner in the frontal longitudinal path, although they are not shown there.
  • the number of processing stations is variable.
  • the device proves to be particularly advantageous for two longitudinal paths running parallel to one another, where each have transverse movement devices at their ends, which permits an alternating transfer from one longitudinal path to the adjacent longitudinal path.
  • the packages move in opposite directions A, B in the two longitudinal paths.
  • the drive of the cassettes with packages longitudinally and transversly is accomplished with the aid of a pusher system arranged right-angularly.
  • the drive mechanism would advantageously include piston cylinder units units shown in FIG. 1 such as cylinders 101 and 102.
  • the package 2 which is brought up in flat form, closed at the bottom, is formed into a right-angled package at the form station 3 by means of the profile plates 20 and 21, which are spread apart. In this process, the large sidewalls are pressed against the vertical plate 18 and 19 of the cassette.
  • the bottom corners 16, which are formed in this process are pressed flat with the aid of pressure pads 24 which can be designed as welding elements and serve as additional fastening during forward motion.
  • the spreading device shown in FIGS. 2-5 is constructed as follows:
  • the spreading device has the profile plates 20 and 21, with rounded off marginal areas 22 and 23, which are arranged parallel to one another and vertically.
  • the profile plates 21 and 22 are connected, over the pivot axes 38 and 39, and 40 and 41, and the associated hinge levers 33 and 35, and 32 and 34, with a glide rod 26, in a hinged manner by means of the hinge axes 37 and 36.
  • a glide piece 29 rests on the glide rod 26.
  • Hinge levers 30 and 31 are attached to the axis 42 of the glide piece 29; they end at the pivot axes 40 and 38.
  • a piston cylinder unit 27 has a piston-rod 43 which is connected with a glide-piece 29.
  • the glide piece 29 may glide downward when the piston rod 43 is withdrawn.
  • the profile plates 20 and 21, which are in the vertical position and parallel to one another are moved outward until the large sidewalls of the package 2 are pressed against the vertical plates 18 and 19.
  • the bottom corner 16 which are thus formed are fixed to the bottom plate 17 with the aid of the pressure pad 24, which is pivotable about the axis 25.
  • the pivoting of the pressure pad 24 occurs by means of the activation of the pressure pad in the direction of the double arrow 28.
